The news about the terrifying face of the Assad regime, which was overthrown by armed opposition in just 12 days, continues to emerge. The revelations about Sednaya Prison, where thousands of Syrians lost their lives due to torture, were horrifying. A mass grave containing the bodies of prisoners who were dissolved in acid was found after the torture devices used on political prisoners in the prison. It was determined that one of the bodies found in the prison belonged to the famous Syrian activist Mazen Hamadi.
HE RETURNED TO HIS COUNTRY WHEN A PARDON WAS PROMISED

The famous activist, who spent 1.5 years in prison and was tortured multiple times during this period, was released in September 2013 and went to the Netherlands to share his experiences. Hamadi returned to his country after a promise of amnesty was given.
DIED AS A RESULT OF SEVERE TORTURE
As soon as he returned to his country, Mazen Hamadi was detained, and his body was found today during the search operations conducted at Sednaya Prison. It was determined that Hamadi died as a result of severe torture.
